if a book is good enough to put me in an existential crisis for a solid week I would have to say it's pretty good!!!! this was a really frustrating read because wow the world sucks for women way more than I thought (and I already knew it was pretty bad!!) this should be mandatory reading for people existing in the world which is my way of telling you to read this asap. this is such a well researched and articulate explanation of what's going on and why it's bad. like seriously guys it's so bad😭😭 my only complaint would be that every now and again the author would not really dig deep into intersectionality which I think was a major loss for the book ESPECIALLY when we're talking about data gaps, like sometimes she would just tack "and it's even WORSE for black women!" or "for poor women it's actually really bad too!!!" or "and yeah ig trans women are also affected by this!!" but then would leave it at that😭😭 either way, a great entry way for new readers of feminist non-fiction but also recommend for seasoned readers as there wasn't really theory so much as just information and stats so I learnt a lot! 4 stars
